The Duluth Public Library invites Duluthians to participate in COVID-19 friendly activities
DULUTH, Minn. – Throughout this pandemic, the Duluth Public Library has continuously adapted to provide free, safe entertainment for the Duluth community.
Starting today, the Duluth Public Library invites Duluthians to participate in free “GooseChases” — or scavenger hunts! The library has GooseChases planned for all ages — toddlers through adults — during the coming two weeks.
Media are welcome to come to the Main Library Friday or Saturday for interviews.
To participate in these GooseChases, download the GooseChase app on your smartphone or tablet, search for a game, and enter the password to start playing. You can play by yourself or with friends or family from anywhere in Duluth.
Our Duluth History GooseChase kicks off this weekend and runs through January 12th! Participants will explore Duluth, snap photos of historical landmarks, and answer local history trivia questions for the chance to win prizes.
These scavenger hunts are FREE. They’re open to anyone in Duluth or the surrounding area. You must be a Duluth resident to win prizes.
